    be careful when buying wheels, see if you can get them on a wheel true and watch the rim edge before you buy (check for sideways/updown movements and twists) tyres must be off.

    best bet is to get yours re-done. powder coating isnt particularly expensive these days or you can spray your own.

    try the yellow pages for powdercoating.

    I spent 3 hours on two wheels prepping, the more effort you put in the more worthwhile it is as you get a better quality finish.

    It's the usual rub down with wet'n'dry paper working from coarse to fine grade, buy some of that elbow grease as its good stuff. Then rinse off with water, then clean paper and cellulose thinners. Next is to prime (warm the can, shake and all that, foot away from surface to spray etc etc). then your colour coats gradually built up.

    someones bound to have found a decent guide by now. it'll take you a full day if done properly and cost you about 15 quid for the cans, thinners and wet'n'dry, the only thing that makes these jobs better is experience. have a go at it...
